Task Force Zamboanga (TFZ) patrol cars will be roving around the City Proper to broadcast information on public safety, and to prompt residents to remain vigilant.

This is part of the TFZ’s campaign Plan Bayanihan, an advocacy that seeks to encourage residents to cooperate and work together with authorities to maintain peace and order in the City, TFZ Commander Col. Adreilino Colino told members of the local press Monday.

Four patrol cars with public address systems will be roving around the City Proper to remind residents to be mindful of what is happening around them.

“Once they [patrol cars] are on the streets, they will be telling the people to be aware of their surroundings, to be aware of any unattended baggage placed on the street or in any area in the City of Zamboanga,” said Colina.

The campaign, he added, intends to pre-empt possible attempts of threat groups to plant IEDs in the City by catalyzing residents to provide information to the armed forces and the police.
